Dewalt Lasers

The point laser marks a single specific point on any flat surface. For mounting projects that require the precise placement of nails or screws, such as a kitchen remodel, the single point offers an exact reference. Many laser levels can emit two or three beams simultaneously, allowing you to see both horizontal and vertical guidelines, as well as a cross-point for those lines.

The Stabila LAX300 G is specifically designed for interior construction projects. Stabila uses a technology they call STABILA GREENBEAM. This technology provides for a razor-sharp, extremely bright, laser line. The laser also gives you clear lines from the floor to the ceiling, provides two plum-line dots, and has a laser range is rated 90 feet. The word “laser” is an acronym for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation. While the science is a bit complicated, basically, that means that lasers emit radiation in the form of visible light.

When using the BM3 positioning device and attached to metal objects via magnet the Bosch is not as stable as the Dewalt and Stabila. The laser base, in free-standing mode, has retractable feet to give it additional stability. There is no lock for the laser pendulum, the laser line will flash when out of level or plumb. The The Dewalt DW088CG is rated for drop protection for 1 meter [3-feet] and has an IP54 Rating. Lasers in this rating normally would not harm an eye unless a person deliberately stared into the beam.

A good laser level should give you options when trying to keep a surface straight. Different projections and features can make the job easier when you have a high degree of flexibility to use. The Tavool Self-Leveling Laser Level takes the top spot because of the flexibility it offers when your project requires straight lines on flat surfaces.

This means you can accurately and easily tackle projects that require the utmost in precision, such as laying tile, installing cabinets, or framing a home addition. Grade rods are used in conjunction with rotary lasers for digging or leveling earth. You must move the detector up or down on the grade rod while the rotary is spinning until you identify the laser line. When that laser line is found you have then established “grade” or level. If you are looking to dig a hole that is 3 inches deep, for example, you would move the detector 3 inches up the grade rod.

You can set the laser level on a chair, table, cabinet, or any other flat surface that’s across the room from the wall where you want to beam the light. You might need to use books or other items to raise the laser level up to the appropriate height. The most important feature of a laser level is its accuracy. After all, if it can’t produce a straight line, what’s the point?

al and horizontal lines for an accurate measurement in most layouts. The locking pendulum casing offers ample protection to the internal parts while the over-molded design resists shocks. You can use this instrument with a tripod dewalt accessories thanks to the integrated 1/4″ thread. Included is the laser itself along with an AA Starter pack, extended ceiling bracket, target card and enhancement glasses. It’s green beam provides enhanced visibility and extended range.

To maximize the versatility of this level, the GLL 1P can be mounted on a variety of surfaces and stands. An adhesive mounting strip is included for mounting it to walls or other objects. The built-in mount can also be screwed to any 1/4-inch tripod stand for larger spaces or projects where you may need to move the laser around. The level is light enough to be handled manually when using the bubble levels or tape measure.
